Manaphy (OU)

Moves: Tail Glow, the signature move of Manaphy, increases Manaphy’s special attack stat by three stages, allowing to smash through most opposing Pokemon. Surf is Manaphy’s strongest water stab move. Scald can be used, as the damage difference isn’t that big a deal, but with Misty Terrain and the burn nerf, Scald isn’t quite as good as it used to be. Psychic provides super effective coverage on poison types like Toxapex and Mega Venusaur. Hidden Power Fire hits the grass and steel types like Ferrothorn and Tangrowth super effectively. Ice Beam is a decent option for hittingGrass-types harder and Energy Ball is a good option for hitting other water types like Tapu Fini. The coverage options that you choose really depends on what your team needs to be weakened.

Spread: Max speed with a Timid nature allows Manaphy to use its decent speed stat to outspeed the bulky Pokemon in the tier, while speed tieing with other base 100s. Max special attack gives Manaphy an easier time when breaking through the opponent’s team. I generally prefer to run Leftovers on Manaphy, allowing it to take advantage of its natural bulk when setting up, especially when you don’t really need a power boosting item at plus three. You can also use the water z move, butusually, I like to pair Manaphy with another z user like Gyarados or Landorus that, who can sweep in the late game. Manaphy only gets one ability, so we’re stuck with Hydration. 0 attack IVs decrease the damage taken from Foul Play and Confusion recoil.

Team Support/Usage: Manaphy is an excellent breaker that can smash through most bulky teams out there, making it perfect for most offensive builds and some balance builds. A bulkier set might be better for Balance, though. Manaphy does suffer from four move slot syndrome, forcing you to have some support for it to completely break through some teams, and an average speed stat at best, weakening its viability against offense. It isn’t completely useless against offense because it can usually pick up a kill or two thanks to its natural bulk. Manaphy appreciates being paired with sweepers like Gyarados, Landorus-t, and Zygarde, who appreciate Manaphy’s wall breaking capabilities. You are also going to want some things that can deal with offense, like Greninja. Lastly, hazard support is huge for Manaphy. Having Stealth Rocks and Spikes gives Manaphy an easier time against walls, and Sticky Webs allows Manaphy to destroy offense on its own, basically.

Thanks everyone for reading! If anyone has any questions, comments, concerns, or requests, don’t hesitate to leave me an ask, and I’ll try to get back to you as soon as I can. Thanks!

So as a kind of apology for being so crappy at updating, I’m doing a cute little thing that I hope some people will like.

My idea is, you give me a description of yourself (ie. personality, looks, hobbies, dislikes, etc.), what fandoms you want to be shipped in (up to 5 fandoms, list is below), and if you’d like a couples playlist.

This means, if you ask nicely, when I ship you with a character, I’ll give you a few songs (5-10) that make me think of your relationship with that character! I will do this for each character I ship you with.

I’ll be doing this up until midnight of August 27th, because that’s when I start school. However, just a warning, if you request on the 26th, I probably won’t get to it until the 27th, because the 26th is my birthday.

For some reason lately, I’ve had an odd interest in the sins, so I decided to waste time and assign the GoM + Kagami to a sin! If anyone else has done this already than I am sorry. Also, I might have got some of this information wrong, since I am mostly writing the explanations on my memory. Sorry for being inaccurate at some parts.

So. Because some people believe that all the Disney princesses are the same, I decided to create this challenge in order to prove that they all have unique personalities and traits that make them special. I hope I managed to do that. Have fun

oh and I KNOW THAT THE FACT THAT ARIEL IS ACTUALLY KILLING AND EATING FISH IS WEIRD but I found it kind of funny.
